File Handling

Geometry Expressions uses standard Windows file Open and Save operations. Save your files regularly with the handy ebd_Ebd5  icon at the top of the screen.

The data files generated from your drawings will have the extension ".gx".

You may create multiple data files and have them open in a session. Each file is on separate page with the tabs across the top of the drawing window. Click the tab to view the file.

If you are preparing a multi-paged lesson, you can save the pages together as a Workbook, with the file extension ".gxw".  This is a completely separate file from the .gx files.

The Open / Save (As) / Close Workbook file selections apply only to the workbook. ebd_Ebd5  and the File / Save commands will NOT save the workbook files.  They only affect the individual .gx files.

Files can also be arranged for comparison viewing.
